Technically just under a week, but still. Here are some reminders as you complete or start your builds.
✧ Despite the numerous references to Kei Cars in the brief and on the challenge announcements channel, sticking to kei car regulations is purely optional. It gives you a SVC reduction and that’s it. A small, sporty car that’s in a similar performance category can score just as well as a kei car in this challenge.
✧ The emissions standard you need to meet is WES 10. The ui change to the emissions part of the fuel economy tab has resulted in some confusion with the original phrasing I had for this rule. I had updated the rules to reflect this, but I’m reiterating it here for clarity.
✧ SUVs, Utes, Trucks, and Vans are NOT welcome in this challenge, kei or otherwise. Those body types are already not allowed within the ruleset, but visually converting something labeled as a sedan or hatch into one of those will get you binned as well. I thought I had made this clear with the inspirations I chose, but after seeing some discord discourse around the subject, I’m making that clear here as well.
✧ If you are taking advantage of the Caterham exception to the Kei car power rule, please let me know when submitting. I’m not going to chase down where your brand is from outside of this thread or your DM to check this rule.
